The surrounding sounds suddenly stopped, and all attention was focused on Yuluo alone.
She held the pipa in her arms, half-hiding her face, and sat on the chair. As she gently plucked the strings with her jade fingers, a clear sound lingered in everyone's ears.
Although Xiao Chen is not very good at music, at least he can appreciate it.
Yuluo's pipa skills are truly astonishing and intoxicating.
He glanced slightly sideways at Wei Zhongxian next to him. This guy was even more intoxicated. His mouth was half-opened, and his mouth was leaking out inadvertently.
By the time he realized it, they had already fallen onto the table.
He hurriedly used his sleeves to take away the saliva on the table. When he noticed Xiao Chen's gaze, he couldn't help but smile innocently: "Sir, Miss Yuluo is not only beautiful and fragrant, but her pipa skills are also outstanding. It's really amazing." Admired!"
He tried hard to cover up the desire in his heart with appreciation.
See through, don’t tell.
Xiao Chen pursed his lips and smiled without saying much.
The melody of the pipa is melodious, from slow to fast, and gradually reaches a climax.
When everyone was getting into a good mood, Yu Luo stood up holding Pipa, twisting and turning slightly.
The skirts are flying, the sound of pipa is in your ears, and the people you are watching are mesmerized, just like in a dream.
Xiao Chen placed his fingers on the table and tapped lightly, playing the beat, but his eyes did not leave Yu Luo for even a moment.
I saw her bouncing and jumping, the light skirt passing over Xiao Chen's head.
People and the sound of pipa were intertwined and swirled around him. Unexpectedly, Xiao Chen felt a little heavier in his arms.
A touch of fragrance hit the tip of my nose, and there was already a tender and charming beauty in my arms.
Her eyes are affectionate and charming, as if she is born with a charming charm.
At this moment, the fingers traced across the strings, and the last trace of melody slowly dispersed, which still made people recall it endlessly.
Jin Guangyao sat nearby, watching this scene develop smoothly, and took a sip of his drink with great satisfaction.
Just when everyone was still immersed in the dreamy pipa sound just now, Xiao Chen suddenly burst out laughing and said happily: "Okay!"
"Miss Jade Luo has superb pipa skills. She plays well and dances even better. I really admire her greatly!"
The hearty laughter passed through the room and echoed in everyone's ears.
Seeing the beauty in his arms, Xiao Chen gently lifted her chin, but when his fingers touched her skin, Yuluo slipped away from his arms like a loach.
He quickly smiled shyly and said, "I just slipped and fell into the arms of the master. I disturbed your mood. Please forgive me."
A good move is to retreat in order to advance, and just play hard to get.
Xiao Chen waved his hand quickly: "A beauty is so outstanding, what crime can she commit?"
"You should be rewarded heavily!"
Xiao Chen glanced at Wei Zhongxian who was beside him and was fascinated, "Wei Zhongxian, what are you still doing? Pay for it!"
Wei Zhongxian has this intention!
It's Xiao Chen's money anyway, so he doesn't feel bad if he pays it, and it can make the beauty smile, so why not?
But at this moment, Yu Luo suddenly knelt down on her knees holding Pipa in her arms.
"Sir, Yuluo doesn't want any gold, silver or jewelry. She just wants to be by your side. Even if she is just a maid who takes care of daily life, she feels extremely honored!"
She bent down to kowtow.
That bit of charm dissipated, replaced by anticipation and pity.
Xiao Chen's eyes lit up, his face was full of joy, and he was about to blurt out subconsciously, "Okay...!"
But he looked at Jin Guangyao next to him with a slight hesitation, and Nono changed his words: "It seems a little difficult."
"Although you are favored by the girl, you are the adopted sister of the current prime minister after all, and the governor is just a eunuch. How can I afford your service?"
Xiao Chen sighed in embarrassment, his face full of helplessness.
Feeling Xiao Chen's expectant eyes, you couldn't tell that his superficial emotion was actually a hint to himself.
Jin Guangyao quickly took advantage of the situation and went downhill, bowing slightly to him: "Director Xiao, please don't say that!"
"You are both strategic and wise, and you are highly valued by the emperor. You already have a noble status and a bright future. I can only say that I have reached a high level!"
"Furthermore, my little sister has admired you for a long time, and it is her wish to serve you. She also hopes that the governor will not dislike her."
There is nothing wrong with what he said. He stepped on his sister and praised Xiao Chen to the sky.
Xiao Chen lowered his head in confusion, his brows furrowed, as if he was thinking.
Jin Guangyao stood up directly and arched his body towards him.
Xiao Chen hurriedly said: "Master Jin, what are you doing!"
"Director Xiao, actually I just want to ask for a favor for my little sister at home, and I ask you to take her in."
As a man, he could see that Xiao Chen had the same desire for Yuluo that men have for women.
Therefore, Xiao Chen's politeness was all just an act!
The two brothers and sisters sang together, and even Wei Zhongxian couldn't help but whisper in his ear: "Sir, it's rare to find such a beautiful woman, and such a deep and affectionate one. It's not a loss if you accept it~"
For a while, there was some silence in the box.
Xiao Chen drank from the glass of wine in front of him, then stood up and helped Yu Luo and Jin Guangyao up.
His hand caressed Yuluo's hand, and he gently pulled her to his side, "A gentleman regards the beauty of a person. Since Miss Yuluo is so infatuated, how can I turn her away?"
"Don't make the atmosphere so serious. Let's continue eating, drinking and having fun. Everyone, sit down quickly!"
Everyone sat back down and the glasses in front of them were filled with wine again.
Yu Luo sat next to Xiao Chen, pouring wine for him and squeezing his shoulders. She was simply envious of others.
Xiao Chen picked up the wine glass, looked at Jin Guangyao with amusement, and said leisurely: "By the way, what did Master Jin say about cooperation just now?"
"Actually, you don't need to be so polite. If you like the casting craftsmanship of the Chamber of Commerce, I will send a group of craftsmen to you for free."
"When the time comes, you will produce and sell it yourself, and you will only need to pay the craftsmen!"
Jin Guangyao was a little surprised, but he couldn't control his excitement.
It seems that the rumors from the outside world are true. Even if he is a eunuch, Xiao Chen's lustful mentality is very real!
He tried his best to suppress the corners of his mouth, pretending to be embarrassed and said: "Director Xiao, I'm afraid this is inappropriate."
He didn't mince words: "You also know that Jin's family is not short of money, so how can we ask you for money to buy goods?"
The production techniques of their Jin family are indeed not as good as the products sold by Xiao Chen's chamber of commerce, but they are not to the point of doing such a thing for the purpose of making money.
It was nothing more than trying to tie up the relationship between the two families through the mining incident, allowing Xiao Chen to make a fortune of his own, just to sell a favor.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Chen, beguiled by beauty, would be so generous.
Xiao Chen was slightly surprised when he said this.
Free gift?
That's a vein of minerals, Jin Family is so generous!
Seeing Xiao Chen's flattered expression, Jin Guangyao struck again while the iron was hot: "Master Xiao, Jin's admiration and admiration for you comes from the bottom of his heart and is sincere. Please do not reject this offer!"
